[FX.php List] PHP installer solution movie and help guide setupphp and cURL in 5 Minutes

[Bob Patin]

So would you listers recommend that we move to the FileMaker API? I  
shudder at the thought of learning another method, now that I'm  
comfortable with FX...

Other than FileMaker's <current> endorsement of the new API, are  
there any other advantages to the API over FX?

Thanks for any opinions,

Bob Patin
